Default Antifreeze

I changed my water pump yesterday after searching how to do it on the forum, I would never attempt to do a repair without some expert advice. This is a great forum.
I took the advice from a member about the type of antifreeze to use Zerox G05. My question is it was yellow and the coolant I removed was blue. Did I use the proper coolant?
Thanks

Yes, no problem with the color it is just a dye.

Yep. Mine was blue, but has now been as yellow as my pee for 2 years now with the G05.

Probably, I only know it's yellow cause I finally, after much practice, learned how to pee a hole in the snow last winter.

If it is blue you have a different issue that may lead to revolt.
